How “Friends” Star, Michael Rapaport, Saved Lives on Flight

The passengers on board this American Airlines flight had a not-so-ordinary journey back from Houston on Saturday...

During the early morning flight to Los Angeles actor, Michael Rapaport, helped to avoid an in-flight disaster, adopting the new nickname, “Air Marshal Mike.”

It all went down after the opening night of the second season of the BIG3 League.

Fox Sports Director, Ted Kenney – who was present on the flight, tweeted about the incident saying he heard a commotion 11 rows ahead, only to see Rapaport spring out of his seat and hurry toward a man yelling, “What the f*** are you doing?!”

@MichaelRapaport just stopped a guy on our plane from opening emergency door. No joke. Mr New York jump right up and stopped it, no hesitation. Thanks Mike!!!
